  • Having dealt with this drama before, and as team lead currently, as soon as this project began, the first thing I did was set up a linter with very specific rules. If a dev doesn’t agree with the rules defined there, too bad. They’re there to prevent this kind of drama, and to make peer reviews more focused and productive. I don’t wanna see PRs about syntax. They’re nearly always just a difference of opinion.

    The only problem I can see is that the rail and gears for the blinds that mounts to the ceiling usually has metal parts which will rust from steam and eventually make it difficult to open and close the blinds. You may be able to coat it in water resistant paint to overcome this. Though it might grow mold in the housing too so you’ll have to clean it occasionally






  • Generally true, but if the professor in this context was not a moron, he probably mentioned at the start of the class that he would be forcing a change to requirements part way through the course. Ideally, he would’ve specified what kind of changes this would be, in order for the students to account for that in their design. I think it’s likely this happened, but the student was lacking so much experience he didn’t understand that hint or what he needed to do in the design in order to later swap parameters more easily. I’m going to withhold judgement on this professor having only heard a biased account. It could’ve been a very good assignment, now being told from the perspective of a mediocre student.



  • As a non-drinker of coffee, I am fully onboard with raising the price of coffee. Everyone is far too addicted to it and drink excessively to an unhealthy amount. Less coffee would be better for general health. Same for chocolate, as I saw someone else mention.

    Too bad Trump doesn’t care about that and doesn’t actually have any plan in mind for this kind of economic policy for the welfare of the people.



  • It’s so you can participate in primary elections for that party. Some people who vote Dem in the general election will sometimes register as Republican so that they can vote for spoiler candidates in the Republican primary. There’s not enough people doing it for that plan to really have any impact though.

    But the same logic applies if you are trying to hide your votes from nosy family. Family members have enough info on you to be able to look up your party registration so if you are afraid of them causing drama, you can register as whatever party the rest of your family is registered as and then vote for the other side in the general election. The actual votes you cast cannot be traced back to you… Which can raise other concerns like not being able to verify if your vote actually counted.
